Sathorn’s established position as a super-prime section of Bangkok’s Central Business District (CBD) is uncontestable. Famed for being host to the headquarters of Thailand’s leading financial institutions, it is inevitably likened to London’s City District or New York’s Wall Street!
This association to high-finance and affluence, combined with a diverse lifestyle that offers a wealth of entertainment and culture venues, such as top international restaurants, independent cafes and classy-chic speakeasy bars have consolidated Sathorn’s appeal. The area has developed a desirable residential cachet, transforming it into one of Bangkok’s most prestigious residential addresses.
The area’s desirability, has directly translated into skyrocketing land prices, which according to The Nation Newspaper have reached an eye watering Bt2 million per square wah, compared to Bt450,000 only 10 years ago. Interestingly, luxury developers seem unphased by this meteoric rise in land prices, and the area is experiencing an unprecedented wave of luxury condo launches.
These luxury residences clustered within the stretch of road around Sathorn Junction to Taksin Bridge are reshaping Sathorn’s residential offerings; further elevating this prestigious address’ super-prime status!
Let’s look at the 4 exclusive projects spearheading Sathorn’s ultra-luxury makeover!
